The truth . . . is a beautiful and terrible thing, and should therefore be treated with great caution.

One Year and Counting
Exactly one year ago, my Faithful Reader and I got married. We had no idea, as we vowed to support each other through thick and thin, that our duo was about to become a trio, and that things were going … Continue reading
More Cake!
On the day of the wedding, Faithful Reader and I cut the cake according to tradition and fed each other small pieces, while I (and perhaps he, too) prayed for the embarrassment to be over quickly. If I had known … Continue reading
Honeymoon Revisited
I’ve had pamphlets from several of Montreal’s sights sitting around in the hopes that I would finally blog about our honeymoon. Now, as I’m struggling to get all boxes unpacked and all my junk organized, it’s time to finally get … Continue reading
Almost Two and No Thanks
My Faithful Reader and I have yet to write thank-you notes for our wedding gifts. The amount of time that has elapsed is more that what is allowed by etiquette. Etiquette shmetiquette. I don’t care about “the rules” in this … Continue reading
One Month and Counting
Faithful Reader and I just passed our one-month anniversary. It’s hard to believe that we’ve been married for over a month! The wedding, by the way, was almost perfect. The weather, which early in the week had looked to be … Continue reading

They Just Said No
I think the worst thing about RSVPs is that there’s nowhere on the card for the person to explain why they can’t go to to your shindig. It just says, “Mr. and Mrs. So-and-So will not be able to attend.” … Continue reading
Sorry for September
September is my favorite month. The weather is finest at this time of year, and I’m not just saying that because my birthday is in September and because my mother always says that the day I was born was one … Continue reading
The Battle for the Gold
What is this? Can it be a free moment of time? A moment to spend frivolously on anything I please? It does appear to be one. Are our Olympics over? Hardly. We didn’t think the 3-Month Wedding Planning event was … Continue reading
